Family Celebration

It's your birthday,
Wish you many more.
Health and wealth and friends by the score.
Cut the cake and let's eat some more-
Happy Birthday to You!

Nicholas and the "special day" plate. He also chose the menu-- chicken parmasan, mac and cheese, and peas. Doesn't he look proud?

The requisite messy baby picture.

The store-bought birthday brownies (I just wasn't in the mood to make two cakes. The one for the party just about did me in)

A Penn State football from Michael. Less than an hour later, the baby bit off a big chunk of it. Luckily, he ate the unautographed end.

Chick Hicks from Katie Grace. There was also a wooden bowling set from Mama and Daddy, but it was the Cars car and the Penn State football that made his day.
